What is Echinacea Flower Extract?

Echinacea Flower Extract Powder is made from the aerial parts of Echinacea purpurea (also known as the purple coneflower), (eg., the stems, leaves and roots). Echinacea purpurea is one of the most well-known plant ingredients in the world for its use in supporting immune function. Echinacea Extract is produced using advanced extraction processes to produce a high-potency extract that contains the full spectrum of phytochemicals naturally present in Echinacea including polyphenols, chicoric acid, flavonoids and other natural compounds, all of which remain in a biologically active form after extraction.

The result of the extraction process is a yellowish-brown fine powder that possesses many excellent processing properties that make it a good choice for many types of dietary supplement products. The growing popularity of natural, plant-based wellness products versus synthetic wellness products has seen the rise of echinacea in the Immune Support Formula segment and in other immunity support products worldwide.

Botanical Source and Active Compounds

Echinacea has long been found and used to promote full and complete health in the United States. The new method of extracting the essential elements of Echinacea is an advancement to the standardization of ingredients. This development is vital to the ability to produce consistent quality products for commercial sale.

The bioactive compounds in echinacea consist of

• Polyphenols,
• Cichoric acid,
• Caffeic acid derivatives,
• Flavonoids,
• Polysaccharides,
• Alkamides.

These natural compounds combine to produce many biological effects and thus, the Echinacea flower extract polyphenols are highly regarded for use in the modern nutraceutical industry.

Why Polyphenols Are Important to Echinacea Flower Extract

Polyphenols are one of the functional compounds that are found in Echinacea. They possess antioxidant capacity, which shields cells from oxidative stress, in addition to supporting the natural defence mechanism of the body.

Polyphenols of a standardized Echinacea flower extract give better advantages as compared to ordinary herbal powder, as follows:

- They produce similar units within a batch.
- They are more easily processed by companies that manufacture supplements.
- They produce more reliable active ingredients levels, and
- They provide finished products with greater commercial value.
- They improve quality control in manufacturing operations.

A standardized polyphenol content will generally be more popular in the development of quality immune health supplements.

Unique advantages of Pure Echinacea Flower Extract Powder include.

• Natural Support for the Immune System

Pure echinacea flower powder, one of its best-known applications, supports healthy immune function. These compounds may help regulate the body’s normal immune responses, including various immune cells and signaling pathways as shown by recent research studies. As a result, this ingredient is very common in this type of seasonal health and wellness product that provides an everyday means to maintain a healthy immune system.

• Antioxidant Activity of Natural Source

The release of free radicals due to exposure to outside environmental factors, the aging process, or normal metabolic processes may contribute to oxidative damage.
The naturally occurring Echinacea flower extract polyphenols help provide support to maintain healthy cellular function through their ability to neutralize free radicals and provide promotion of overall health and vitality.

Some of the potential antioxidant benefits are:

1. Protection from oxidative stress
2. Maintenance of cellular integrity
3. Healthy aging
4. Assistance with daily wellness management.

• Support of a Healthy Inflammatory Response

Echinacea polyphenols have borne out Antiinflammatory properties in lab studies.

Unlike chemical drugs, the polyphenols from botanicals support the needs of the body for balanced inflammation, making them a desirable ingredient in everyday wellness products.
